Record every new Drive share in Coda

Make access changes visible without opening every Drive settings panel.

Trigger

File Shared (Permissions Added)

Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.

Action

Adds a new permission to the doc.

Why this helps

Important sharing decisions happen quietly and are hard to audit later.

  • Improve access visibility
  • Create an audit trail
  • Spot unexpected sharing faster

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Super and Coda once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Drive share permission record.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Coda permission record with the file, grantee, role, timestamp, and review note.
  • 4Pick File Shared (Permissions Added) as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, test with one sharing change, and review the record.
